"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins wants to dismiss a historic first-ever case against a city police officer for shooting and killing a carjacking suspect unless California Attorney General Rob Bonta agrees to take it over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23606025-2328-letter-from-jenkins-to-ag?responsive=1&title=1\">In a letter to Bonta\u003c/a> sent Wednesday, and obtained by KQED, Jenkins outlined an investigation into Boudin’s handling of the case, and claims her ousted predecessor sought manslaughter charges against former officer Christopher Samayoa for “political reasons and not in the interests of justice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I cannot pursue this case out of political convenience. Given\u003cbr>\nthe conflicts that have arisen, the evidentiary problems, and the complete lack of good faith surrounding the filing of this matter, we cannot ethically proceed with this prosecution,” Jenkins wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Attorney General’s Office told KQED, in a statement, “We can confirm that we’ve received the requests and we are reviewing them.”\u003cbr>\n[aside postID=\"news_11926200\" label=\"Related Posts\"]Boudin’s office charged Samayoa with multiple charges, including manslaughter, for shooting and killing 42-year-old Keita O’Neil after he allegedly stole a California Lottery van in 2017. Samayoa, a rookie cop on his fourth day on the force, shot through his vehicle window at O’Neil, killing him. O’Neil was unarmed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Boudin aimed to prosecute Samayoa as a means to force change in the culture of the San Francisco Police Department, Jenkins claims in the letter, citing statements made by attorneys in the District Attorney’s Office who worked on the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When speaking to another DA staffer, one assistant district attorney on the Samayoa case said he was “not looking for jail time, but rather ‘to change the way SFPD does things or policy or procedures,'” Jenkins wrote to Bonta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But to April Green, aunt of Keita O’Neil, and to her attorney, Brian Ford, Jenkins’ letter to Bonta demonstrates something they’ve suspected all along — Jenkins put more resources into investigating Boudin than into prosecuting Samayoa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They also asked Bonta to take over the case, \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23606024-2328-ltr-to-ag-req-ag-assume-prosecution?responsive=1&title=1\">in a letter sent at roughly the same time\u003c/a> as Jenkins’.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what’s written in her letter confirms the conflict we’re complaining about,” Ford told KQED. “That she’s more interested in investigating Chesa Boudin than pursuing a prosecution, and is mishandling the prosecution, against the officer who murdered [Green’s] nephew.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23606024-2328-ltr-to-ag-req-ag-assume-prosecution?responsive=1&title=1\">In Ford’s letter to Bonta\u003c/a>, the attorney claimed Jenkins admitted to Ford that her office “may be conflicted” in its investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as for the statements made by assistant district attorneys about their reasons for pursuing a case, Ford wrote, “The opinions of the D.A. Inspectors are not ‘evidence,’ and they are not relevant, nor are they exculpatory,” meaning they do not prove innocence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separate from the criminal case, O’Neil’s family settled a civil lawsuit against the city for $2.5 million. Boudin’s charges against Samayoa include voluntary manslaughter, involuntary manslaughter, assault by an executive officer, assault with a semi-automatic firearm and negligent discharge of a firearm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Green and Jenkins have had a rocky relationship.

That got the Bay Curious team wondering about some of the questions we’ve received over the years about water — where it flows and how we’re affected by it. This week we have a three-question lightning round.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. When it rains in the Bay Area, and the water runs to the gutter, does it go directly into the bay?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>This question came to us from listener Eric Bauer. For most cities in the Bay Area, the answer is yes. Depending on where you live, gutters in your street will take stormwater or other runoff to creeks that lead out to the bay without any kind of treatment. Instead, many cities put signs on the curb urging residents not to put pollutants in the drain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The one exception to that is San Francisco. The city has what’s called a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfpuc.org/about-us/our-systems/sewer-system/our-combined-sewer\">combined sewer system\u003c/a>, and other than a section of Old Sacramento, it’s the only one in California. This means rainwater and runoff go into the sewer system, along with whatever is coming from the pipes in our homes, and is subject to the same level of water treatment before it is released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vast majority of the time, this system works great, and the environment is spared from the chemicals, oil and other unsavory substances that get washed from San Francisco streets. During normal conditions, the system can handle a lot of water — up to 500 million gallons of sewage plus runoff, with an additional 200 million gallons of storage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940547\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS61878_010_KQED_BombCyloneStorm_01052023-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11940547 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS61878_010_KQED_BombCyloneStorm_01052023-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Close up image of a storm drain on a street corner.

On the most recent New Year’s Eve, a storm dropped 5.46 inches of rain on San Francisco in one day, equivalent to over 4 billion gallons of water. That led to some sewage being discharged without full treatment — not just in San Francisco, but throughout the Bay Area. Collectively, the nine counties \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11938273/our-worst-nightmare-as-storms-raged-millions-of-gallons-of-sewage-spilled-into-bay-area-waterways-streets-and-yards\">discharged some 62 million gallons\u003c/a> of raw or partially treated sewage into waterways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How do we keep that from happening again, as storms like these become more common as the climate changes? One idea is creating more “green infrastructure” by capturing or diverting some of that water before it gets into the sewer system. That could be in the form of cisterns to collect water for use in drier times, opening up more green space or creating permeable asphalt to allow water to soak into the soil below.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. Are there really underground rivers in San Francisco?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A listener named Norm wrote to us asking about an oft-repeated story about San Francisco’s secret, underground rivers. He mentioned \u003ca href=\"https://sfist.com/2021/09/29/central-subway-construction-is-98-done-but-you-wont-be-allowed-in-until-next-spring-or-summer/#:~:text=%22We%20did%20not%20know%20that%20we%20would%20hit%20an%20underground%20river%20that%20we%20would%20have%20to%20contend%20with.\">a 2021 quote from the director of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency citing an “underground river”\u003c/a> as part of the reason the city’s Central Subway completion was delayed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By definition, a creek or river is free-flowing water that follows a channel, like a creek bed, either on the surface or in an underground cave. So are rivers really down there?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Time to do some myth-busting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have caves underground for creeks to flow through, other than the sewer,” says writer and natural history educator \u003ca href=\"https://www.joelpomerantz.com/\">Joel Pomerantz\u003c/a>. “So really, the misimpression that there’s an old creek here and it’s still down there somewhere is not accurate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940515\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11940515 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-800x608.jpg\" alt=\"A man wearing blue jeans, a sweater and a knitted cap leans forward on a railing, with a colorful mural on the wall behind him.\" width=\"800\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-800x608.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-1020x775.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-160x122.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-1536x1166.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Joel Pomerantz stands near Mission Playground. In the early days of the city, this area held a large freshwater marsh and estuary. \u003ccite>(Amanda Font/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But there is a connection between areas that are prone to flooding and where creeks \u003cem>used to\u003c/em> flow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s no secret that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11799297/large-parts-of-the-bay-area-are-built-on-fill-why-and-where\">much of San Francisco is built on fill\u003c/a>, and the most visible of those areas are along the edges of the city. But inland waterways have been covered up over time, too. A few years ago, Pomerantz created the “\u003ca href=\"http://seepcity.org/index.html\">Seep City\u003c/a>” map, which traces waterways that existed when San Francisco first became a city. That includes the bays, but also numerous creeks and large areas of marshland and estuaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one time, much of the Mission District was marshland fed by the Arroyo Dolores, a waterway that ran from Twin Peaks down the center of 18th Street and through the northern corner of modern-day Dolores Park. That led to a larger saltwater marsh and slough that fed into Mission Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those waterways have since been filled, but the topography of the land hasn’t changed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I mean, if you think of the shape of the land,” says Pomerantz, “and if you’re a bicyclist, especially, like I am, you notice the shape of the land because you’re avoiding the hills. That’s what the water does.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriousbug] In addition to gravity leading rainwater down to those lower-lying sections of the city in the form of storm runoff, groundwater is also seeping through the soil to pool in those areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when it’s raining really hard, says Pomerantz, the combination causes flooding. San Francisco’s large concentration of groundwater, coupled with increasing atmospheric river storms and the potential for sea level rise, could pose a big problem for the city. A new study finds that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11938215/new-study-finds-rising-groundwater-is-a-major-bay-area-flooding-risk\">rising groundwater has huge implications for future flooding events\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. What happens to the ground squirrels when it floods? Do they drown?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Our final question comes from listener Emily Robertson. In light of the massive flooding many cities have dealt with recently, Emily was worried that California ground squirrels might be getting flooded out of their burrows — or worse, drowning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the answer to this question, we turned to \u003ca href=\"https://www.jenniferelainesmith.com/\">Jennifer Smith\u003c/a>, a behavioral ecologist who studies social mammals, and specializes in squirrel behavior. For nearly a decade, Smith has been leading a research team in a long-term study of California ground squirrels in Briones Regional Park in Martinez. The team safely traps and marks the fur of individual animals so they can study their behavior and social patterns over time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940549\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/IMG_8118-scaled.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11940549 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/IMG_8118-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"A small, fuzzy, and very cute juvenile ground squirrel pops out of a burrow.

That got the Bay Curious team wondering about some of the questions we’ve received over the years about water — where it flows and how we’re affected by it. This week we have a three-question lightning round.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. When it rains in the Bay Area, and the water runs to the gutter, does it go directly into the bay?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>This question came to us from listener Eric Bauer. For most cities in the Bay Area, the answer is yes. Depending on where you live, gutters in your street will take stormwater or other runoff to creeks that lead out to the bay without any kind of treatment. Instead, many cities put signs on the curb urging residents not to put pollutants in the drain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003caside class=\"alignleft utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__bayCuriousPodcastShortcode__bayCurious\">\u003cimg src=https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/bayCuriousLogo.png alt=\"Bay Curious Podcast\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n \u003ca href=\"/news/series/baycurious\">Bay Curious\u003c/a> is a podcast that answers your questions about the Bay Area.\n Subscribe on \u003ca href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bay-curious/id1172473406\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Apple Podcasts\u003c/a>,\n \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/podcasts/500557090/bay-curious\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NPR One\u003c/a> or your favorite podcast platform.\u003c/aside>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The one exception to that is San Francisco. The city has what’s called a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfpuc.org/about-us/our-systems/sewer-system/our-combined-sewer\">combined sewer system\u003c/a>, and other than a section of Old Sacramento, it’s the only one in California. This means rainwater and runoff go into the sewer system, along with whatever is coming from the pipes in our homes, and is subject to the same level of water treatment before it is released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On the most recent New Year’s Eve, a storm dropped 5.46 inches of rain on San Francisco in one day, equivalent to over 4 billion gallons of water. That led to some sewage being discharged without full treatment — not just in San Francisco, but throughout the Bay Area. Collectively, the nine counties \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11938273/our-worst-nightmare-as-storms-raged-millions-of-gallons-of-sewage-spilled-into-bay-area-waterways-streets-and-yards\">discharged some 62 million gallons\u003c/a> of raw or partially treated sewage into waterways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How do we keep that from happening again, as storms like these become more common as the climate changes? One idea is creating more “green infrastructure” by capturing or diverting some of that water before it gets into the sewer system. That could be in the form of cisterns to collect water for use in drier times, opening up more green space or creating permeable asphalt to allow water to soak into the soil below.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. Are there really underground rivers in San Francisco?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A listener named Norm wrote to us asking about an oft-repeated story about San Francisco’s secret, underground rivers. He mentioned \u003ca href=\"https://sfist.com/2021/09/29/central-subway-construction-is-98-done-but-you-wont-be-allowed-in-until-next-spring-or-summer/#:~:text=%22We%20did%20not%20know%20that%20we%20would%20hit%20an%20underground%20river%20that%20we%20would%20have%20to%20contend%20with.\">a 2021 quote from the director of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency citing an “underground river”\u003c/a> as part of the reason the city’s Central Subway completion was delayed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By definition, a creek or river is free-flowing water that follows a channel, like a creek bed, either on the surface or in an underground cave. So are rivers really down there?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Time to do some myth-busting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have caves underground for creeks to flow through, other than the sewer,” says writer and natural history educator \u003ca href=\"https://www.joelpomerantz.com/\">Joel Pomerantz\u003c/a>. “So really, the misimpression that there’s an old creek here and it’s still down there somewhere is not accurate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940515\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11940515 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-800x608.jpg\" alt=\"A man wearing blue jeans, a sweater and a knitted cap leans forward on a railing, with a colorful mural on the wall behind him.\" width=\"800\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-800x608.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-1020x775.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-160x122.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz-1536x1166.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/Joel-Pomerantz.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Joel Pomerantz stands near Mission Playground. In the early days of the city, this area held a large freshwater marsh and estuary. \u003ccite>(Amanda Font/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But there is a connection between areas that are prone to flooding and where creeks \u003cem>used to\u003c/em> flow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s no secret that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11799297/large-parts-of-the-bay-area-are-built-on-fill-why-and-where\">much of San Francisco is built on fill\u003c/a>, and the most visible of those areas are along the edges of the city. But inland waterways have been covered up over time, too. A few years ago, Pomerantz created the “\u003ca href=\"http://seepcity.org/index.html\">Seep City\u003c/a>” map, which traces waterways that existed when San Francisco first became a city. That includes the bays, but also numerous creeks and large areas of marshland and estuaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one time, much of the Mission District was marshland fed by the Arroyo Dolores, a waterway that ran from Twin Peaks down the center of 18th Street and through the northern corner of modern-day Dolores Park. That led to a larger saltwater marsh and slough that fed into Mission Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those waterways have since been filled, but the topography of the land hasn’t changed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I mean, if you think of the shape of the land,” says Pomerantz, “and if you’re a bicyclist, especially, like I am, you notice the shape of the land because you’re avoiding the hills. That’s what the water does.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003caside class=\"alignleft utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__bayCuriousPodcastShortcode__bayCurious\">\u003cimg src=https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/bayCuriousLogo.png alt=\"Bay Curious Podcast\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n What do you wonder about the Bay Area, its culture or people that you want KQED to investigate?\n \u003ca href=\"/news/series/baycurious\">Ask Bay Curious.\u003c/a>\u003c/aside>\u003c/p>\u003cp> In addition to gravity leading rainwater down to those lower-lying sections of the city in the form of storm runoff, groundwater is also seeping through the soil to pool in those areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when it’s raining really hard, says Pomerantz, the combination causes flooding. San Francisco’s large concentration of groundwater, coupled with increasing atmospheric river storms and the potential for sea level rise, could pose a big problem for the city. A new study finds that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11938215/new-study-finds-rising-groundwater-is-a-major-bay-area-flooding-risk\">rising groundwater has huge implications for future flooding events\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. What happens to the ground squirrels when it floods? Do they drown?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Our final question comes from listener Emily Robertson. In light of the massive flooding many cities have dealt with recently, Emily was worried that California ground squirrels might be getting flooded out of their burrows — or worse, drowning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the answer to this question, we turned to \u003ca href=\"https://www.jenniferelainesmith.com/\">Jennifer Smith\u003c/a>, a behavioral ecologist who studies social mammals, and specializes in squirrel behavior. For nearly a decade, Smith has been leading a research team in a long-term study of California ground squirrels in Briones Regional Park in Martinez. The team safely traps and marks the fur of individual animals so they can study their behavior and social patterns over time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940549\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/IMG_8118-scaled.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11940549 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/IMG_8118-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"A small, fuzzy, and very cute juvenile ground squirrel pops out of a burrow.

"content": "\u003cp>Three mass shootings in California this month have brought renewed attention to the state’s gun violence prevention laws, known as red flag laws, that allow courts to remove firearms from someone deemed a danger to themselves or others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many California residents don’t know about the laws, according to researchers at UC Davis, limiting their potential. And it’s been a slow rollout training and staffing law enforcement agencies to enforce gun violence restraining orders, which temporarily prohibit someone from having a firearm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Often in the aftermath of tragedies such as mass shootings, we hear about red flags displayed by the perpetrator that could have signaled an impending crisis or trauma,” California Attorney General Rob Bonta said in a public statement this week. “Criminal and civil orders that result in the removal of firearms are critical tools that can help save lives, but they are severely underutilized. When you have concerns that someone may pose a threat, we encourage you to act.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"David Chiu, San Francisco city attorney\"]‘We are not talking about trivial situations. These are incredibly volatile situations and any could lead to horrific and tragic results.’[/pullquote]San Francisco and San Diego are two cities trying to boost utilization of red flag laws to help get guns out of potentially dangerous situations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Red flag laws are an incredibly important tool,” said San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu, whose office processes requests for gun violence restraining orders. “In our first few years, we have removed firearms in several dozen highly dangerous circumstances.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, California became one of the first states to enact a red flag law, following \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/137287/can-legislation-prevent-mass-shootings\">the 2014 mass shooting in Isla Vista that killed seven people\u003c/a>. California is now among the 19 states and the District of Columbia with such laws, also often called “extreme risk protection orders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law allows law enforcement, household members, family, teachers, employers and co-workers to request that a judge temporarily remove access to another person’s firearm if they pose a significant threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The request is typically made to local law enforcement, who, along with attorneys, investigate and build a case for whether the individual should be brought to court for a hearing before a judge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since 2016, San Francisco has recovered more than 50 firearms, both registered and unregistered, through gun violence restraining orders, according to Chiu, as well as thousands of rounds of ammunition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But nearly \u003ca href=\"https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama-health-forum/fullarticle/2780806\">two-thirds of Californians surveyed have still never heard of gun violence restraining orders\u003c/a>, according to a 2021 study from UC Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the same study found that once surveyors were given a description of the policy, they supported it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So what we see there is really this willingness of individuals to take action once they know something is in place. But, a lot of people don’t know this exists or even the process of going about that,” said Nicole Kravitz-Wirtz, who studies gun violence at UC Davis and is the lead author of the study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdRrQNemFoQ\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, the red flag law has been utilized in situations such as when a man strangled his mother and threatened to kill her, according to Chiu. In another case, San Francisco authorities confiscated firearms and six rounds of ammunition from someone who was experiencing hallucinations and began firing a pistol inside his house, believing someone was coming out of the fridge to take his wife and kid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are not talking about trivial situations,” Chiu said. “These are incredibly volatile situations and any could lead to horrific and tragic results.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chiu believes San Francisco is just getting started. Last year, the City Attorney’s Office received city funding to hire a full-time staff member to oversee gun removal requests and help increase awareness and capacity for follow-through on requests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Diego has started down that path already. There, a team of around eight attorneys and investigators are assigned to gun violence restraining orders.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘This is a crisis intervention tool’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“The idea is to give a cooling-off period to the individual. Usually, the person for whom guns and access to guns is an issue is going through some kind of a traumatic event. And it could be a breakup of a relationship, maybe they got out of the military and they have post-traumatic stress disorder,” San Diego City Attorney Mara Elliott told KQED. “We work closely with Alzheimer’s here in San Diego because once-responsible gun owners could become irresponsible because their health deteriorated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2021, San Diego accounted for about 31% (435 out of 1,384) of all gun violence restraining orders issued across the state, according to the state Attorney General’s Office. The city has issued more than 1,000 gun violence restraining orders since the law was enacted in California in 2016, according to Elliott.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She estimates that roughly a third of those confiscations were in situations where the individual had shown signs or expressed thoughts of self-harm, and another third has been related to domestic violence and intimate partner trauma. Other situations where the restraining orders have been approved include workplace and school threats, Elliott said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a crisis intervention tool. If someone is going through a really hard time, let’s get the guns out of their home and help them get better,” Elliott said. “We don’t have any interest in [removing guns from] responsible gun owners.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='mass-shootings']Part of the work that San Diego’s gun violence prevention office does is assess whether a gun violence restraining order is the best intervention. In some cases, anger management or mental health treatment might be more appropriate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we are only dealing with the threat and not what led to it, we could miss something really important,” Elliott said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Law enforcement officials in San Francisco said the request alone can provide a useful heads-up about behaviors before a violent incident occurs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have people who purchased guns legally but may be in crisis or experiencing a mental health issue that may not have come up in the background process. So it’s literally a red flag to us to take that firearm out of their possession,” said San Francisco Sheriff Paul Miyamoto.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>James Dudley, a former deputy chief with the San Francisco Police Department, now teaches criminal justice at San Francisco State University. He thinks California could be doing more to utilize its red flag law and enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember during my own time as a law enforcement officer, we would get stuck and had to tell victims we didn’t have enough evidence to get a court order to seize guns. There were so many different cases where if we could have got ahead of the game, we could have prevented some violence,” Dudley told KQED. “Shootings can often be repeat offenders and we don’t do nearly enough for people with the highest propensity for firearms violation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Do you know someone with access to a firearm who may be a risk to themselves or others?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://speakforsafety.org/\">SpeakforSafety.org\u003c/a>, a campaign to raise awareness of gun violence restraining orders, has resources to walk you through the necessary steps of how to obtain an order. The site includes support for employees, family or household members, teachers and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More information can also be found through the California Courts website in \u003ca href=\"https://www.courts.ca.gov/33961.htm?rdeLocaleAttr=en\">English\u003c/a> and in \u003ca href=\"https://www.courts.ca.gov/33961.htm?rdeLocaleAttr=es\">Spanish\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

And it could be a breakup of a relationship, maybe they got out of the military and they have post-traumatic stress disorder,” San Diego City Attorney Mara Elliott told KQED. “We work closely with Alzheimer’s here in San Diego because once-responsible gun owners could become irresponsible because their health deteriorated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2021, San Diego accounted for about 31% (435 out of 1,384) of all gun violence restraining orders issued across the state, according to the state Attorney General’s Office. The city has issued more than 1,000 gun violence restraining orders since the law was enacted in California in 2016, according to Elliott.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She estimates that roughly a third of those confiscations were in situations where the individual had shown signs or expressed thoughts of self-harm, and another third has been related to domestic violence and intimate partner trauma. Other situations where the restraining orders have been approved include workplace and school threats, Elliott said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a crisis intervention tool. If someone is going through a really hard time, let’s get the guns out of their home and help them get better,” Elliott said. “We don’t have any interest in [removing guns from] responsible gun owners.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Recuerde que sólo se seleccionarán 55 beneficiarios para este programa piloto.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dado que la financiación procede de la ciudad de San Francisco, sólo los residentes de San Francisco podrán participar en el programa, y aquellos participantes inscritos si abandonan la ciudad también tendrán que abandonar el programa GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"impuestos\">\u003c/a>¿Cómo incluyo GIFT en mis impuestos o en otras prestaciones que esté recibiendo?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Tendrá que declarar a la Oficina de Impuestos sobre la Renta (IRS, por sus siglas en inglés) lo que ha recibido de GIFT cuando presente sus impuestos del 2023 en el 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Otros organismos públicos, como la Administración del Seguro Social, también considerarán el GIFT como un ingreso, lo que podría afectar a otras prestaciones, como la Seguridad de Ingreso Suplementario (SSI por sus siglas en inglés).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A veces se tarda décadas en conseguir la SSI y cuando por fin se recibe, sólo se puede ganar hasta cierto punto”, dijo Samuel Favela, asociado del programa en el Distrito Transgénero. El SSI y otros programas de ayuda del gobierno, como CalFresh, tienen estrictos límites de ingresos. Favela señala la posibilidad de que alguien pueda perder estas prestaciones si supera el límite de ingresos al recibir los fondos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si es elegido para participar en GIFT y también recibe prestaciones estatales como CalFresh o CalWorks, Favela recomienda notificar a ese organismo de la existencia de GIFT antes de empezar a recibir dinero. “Si no lo comunica, le pasarán factura al final del programa”, dice Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sin embargo, Favela afirma que el equipo del Distrito Transexual se compromete a ayudar a la gente en estas situaciones delicadas, ya que la organización cree que alguien no debería tener que elegir entre dos salvavidas cuando se trata de sobrevivir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hay exenciones a las que pueden acogerse y vamos a trabajar con ellos en eso también”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero lo más importante que puede hacer si recibe prestaciones del gobierno y está avanzando en el proceso de solicitud de GIFT es ser lo más transparente posible, tanto con los organizadores de GIFT, como con los organismos gubernamentales. “Su trabajador social es probablemente la mejor persona con la que debe ponerse en contacto, y quien también puede ponerse en contacto con nosotros”, añadió Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Trabajo de manera informal. ¿Qué puedo hacer para demostrar mis ingresos?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>En la página web de GIFT puede \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">cargar diversos documentos para acompañar su solicitud\u003c/a> y comprobar sus ingresos. Puede incluir formularios W-2, talones de pago o incluso extractos bancarios. Las personas que sólo reciben ingresos del SSI o del SSDI pueden compartir las cartas que reciben de la Administración del Seguro Social confirmando que reciben estas prestaciones. También se aceptan las cartas de ayuda financiera de universidades o escuelas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero si trabaja de manera informal y no dispone de documentación que acredite sus ingresos, puede presentar una carta de autocertificación. Este \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_33ab30018f9c4a53bc75aee82f583dcb.pdf\">formulario de declaración de ingresos está disponible en PDF\u003c/a> en el sitio web de GIFT, junto con otros documentos para descargar y utilizar, y le permite compartir cuántos ingresos tiene al mes, cuántas personas viven con usted y por qué no puede aportar pruebas de sus ingresos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Confiamos en que la gente nos facilite la información correcta y tenga buenas intenciones”, explica Favela, quien añade que son muy comprensivos con el hecho de que la gente tenga muchas formas distintas de ganarse la visa. “Así que si quieren hacernos saber que son trabajadores sexuales, y esto es lo que ganan al mes, sólo tienen que escribir un correo electrónico y llenar esa sección de esa manera”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11934956\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11934956\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">En el sitio web de GIFT, puede subir una serie de documentos para acompañar su solicitud y comprobar cuánto gana. \u003ccite>(Cottonbro/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"vivienda\">\u003c/a>Mi situación de vivienda es complicada, o estoy entre dos alojamientos en este momento. ¿Cómo puedo demostrar que vivo en San Francisco?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Al igual que para verificar sus ingresos, hay muchas formas de confirmar que vive actualmente en San Francisco. Si no tiene ningún recibo de PG&E o de una compañía telefónica que incluya su nombre y dirección actual, puede pedir a un trabajador social o proveedor de atención sanitaria o agencia con la que esté trabajando, que escriba una carta que confirme que vive en la ciudad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si se aloja en un albergue, puede solicitar una carta de verificación a la gerencia del albergue. Pero si eso tampoco es una opción, puede llenar otro \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_e495477cb1df47319fab57e3b20f314e.pdf\">formulario de autocertificación de residencia (PDF) disponible en el sitio web de GIFT\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En el formulario de declaración de residencia, tendrá que confirmar que actualmente no tiene vivienda y que no hay ningún organismo u organización que pueda facilitarle una carta que confirme su situación de alojamiento. Una vez completado, \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">puede subirlo al portal en línea con el resto de sus documentos\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"encuestas\">\u003c/a>¿Qué hay de esas encuestas de seguimiento que los participantes en GIFT tienen que hacer cada tres meses?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, asociada ejecutiva del Distrito Transgénero, confirma que el objetivo de estos controles es saber cómo les va a la gente desde que inició el programa. “No estamos vigilando cómo gastan el dinero”, afirma Davis. “Pero nos gustaría saber cómo está mejorando su vida”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La clínica Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero participarán en estos seguimientos, los cuales también verán si han cambiado las rutinas diarias y las responsabilidades de los participantes. Por ejemplo, explica Davis, “¿Están recibiendo la atención de salud mental que necesitan? ¿Pueden pagar la comida? ¿Pueden pagar el seguro? ¿Pueden acudir a las citas con el médico o conseguir recetas médicas?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En estas conversaciones, si un participante dice que necesita servicios de atención de salud, se le puede poner en contacto con los Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin para que reciba tratamiento. Algunos de estos datos también se compartirán con la Oficina de Iniciativas Transgénero del Ayuntamiento. Sin embargo, el equipo del Distrito Transgénero aclaró que estos datos se utilizarán para comprender mejor el impacto del programa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>También es importante mencionar que las agencias de la ciudad no comparten información sobre el estatus migratorio de nadie con las agencias federales.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Puedo participar en este programa si estoy indocumentado?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sí, y no necesita un número del Seguro Social para recibir los ingresos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Los organizadores dicen que las personas hispanohablantes monolingües, y los inmigrantes indocumentados tienen prioridad de inscripción.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Cómo se elegirá exactamente a los participantes?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>El centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero seleccionarán a los participantes al azar. Y en cuanto al público trans de San Francisco al que se quiere llegar, el programa todavía tiene “datos demográficos que estamos tratando de concretar”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“El 60% de las personas que vamos a intentar que participen en el programa son personas trans negras”, explicaron.\u003c/strong> “Así que en esa selección al azar, al menos el 60% van a ser [personas trans negras]”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Los clasificaremos según la categoría en la que se encuentren y luego simplemente haremos una selección al azar dentro de cada categoría”, añadió Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"puedo\">\u003c/a>¿Dónde puedo dirigirme?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">Dado que la solicitud GIFT sólo está disponible en línea\u003c/a>, puede resultar difícil presentarla para las personas que no tienen acceso regular a una computadora o una conexión estable a Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para ofrecer un asesoramiento más personalizado, el equipo del centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin está aceptando ayudar a personas interesadas sin cita previa a presentar su solicitud, o que tengan preguntas al respecto. Puede hablar en persona con el equipo en la clínica ubicada en el 1735 de la calle Mission, cerca de las líneas 14 y 49 de Muni. También puede llamarles al (415) 565-7667.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis, del Distrito Transgénero, también recomienda que acuda a su trabajador social si lo tiene. Si usted o alguien que usted conoce necesita más ayuda en español, Davis recomienda contactar a \u003ca href=\"https://ellaparatranslatinas.org/es/home\">El/La Para TransLatinas\u003c/a>, una organización que se centra en servir y abogar por las personas trans Latinx en el Área de la Bahía. Puede ponerse en contacto llamando al (415) 864-7278.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>¿Quiere solicitar GIFT pero se siente inseguro o incluso nervioso por hacerlo?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No tenga dudas”, exhorta Davis, añadiendo que, al tratarse de un programa piloto, este puede influir en lo que se pueda hacer en San Francisco, y potencialmente otras ciudades más.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Por el momento, es una oportunidad única en la vida, y esto ayudará a muchas más personas trans, jóvenes trans y personas mayores trans en el futuro”, dijo.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Este artículo fue traducido por la periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/mpena/\">María Peña\u003c/a> y editado por el periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/ccabreralomeli\">Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Recuerde que sólo se seleccionarán 55 beneficiarios para este programa piloto.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dado que la financiación procede de la ciudad de San Francisco, sólo los residentes de San Francisco podrán participar en el programa, y aquellos participantes inscritos si abandonan la ciudad también tendrán que abandonar el programa GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"impuestos\">\u003c/a>¿Cómo incluyo GIFT en mis impuestos o en otras prestaciones que esté recibiendo?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Tendrá que declarar a la Oficina de Impuestos sobre la Renta (IRS, por sus siglas en inglés) lo que ha recibido de GIFT cuando presente sus impuestos del 2023 en el 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Otros organismos públicos, como la Administración del Seguro Social, también considerarán el GIFT como un ingreso, lo que podría afectar a otras prestaciones, como la Seguridad de Ingreso Suplementario (SSI por sus siglas en inglés).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A veces se tarda décadas en conseguir la SSI y cuando por fin se recibe, sólo se puede ganar hasta cierto punto”, dijo Samuel Favela, asociado del programa en el Distrito Transgénero. El SSI y otros programas de ayuda del gobierno, como CalFresh, tienen estrictos límites de ingresos. Favela señala la posibilidad de que alguien pueda perder estas prestaciones si supera el límite de ingresos al recibir los fondos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si es elegido para participar en GIFT y también recibe prestaciones estatales como CalFresh o CalWorks, Favela recomienda notificar a ese organismo de la existencia de GIFT antes de empezar a recibir dinero. “Si no lo comunica, le pasarán factura al final del programa”, dice Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sin embargo, Favela afirma que el equipo del Distrito Transexual se compromete a ayudar a la gente en estas situaciones delicadas, ya que la organización cree que alguien no debería tener que elegir entre dos salvavidas cuando se trata de sobrevivir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hay exenciones a las que pueden acogerse y vamos a trabajar con ellos en eso también”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero lo más importante que puede hacer si recibe prestaciones del gobierno y está avanzando en el proceso de solicitud de GIFT es ser lo más transparente posible, tanto con los organizadores de GIFT, como con los organismos gubernamentales. “Su trabajador social es probablemente la mejor persona con la que debe ponerse en contacto, y quien también puede ponerse en contacto con nosotros”, añadió Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Trabajo de manera informal. ¿Qué puedo hacer para demostrar mis ingresos?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>En la página web de GIFT puede \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">cargar diversos documentos para acompañar su solicitud\u003c/a> y comprobar sus ingresos. Puede incluir formularios W-2, talones de pago o incluso extractos bancarios. Las personas que sólo reciben ingresos del SSI o del SSDI pueden compartir las cartas que reciben de la Administración del Seguro Social confirmando que reciben estas prestaciones. También se aceptan las cartas de ayuda financiera de universidades o escuelas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero si trabaja de manera informal y no dispone de documentación que acredite sus ingresos, puede presentar una carta de autocertificación. Este \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_33ab30018f9c4a53bc75aee82f583dcb.pdf\">formulario de declaración de ingresos está disponible en PDF\u003c/a> en el sitio web de GIFT, junto con otros documentos para descargar y utilizar, y le permite compartir cuántos ingresos tiene al mes, cuántas personas viven con usted y por qué no puede aportar pruebas de sus ingresos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Confiamos en que la gente nos facilite la información correcta y tenga buenas intenciones”, explica Favela, quien añade que son muy comprensivos con el hecho de que la gente tenga muchas formas distintas de ganarse la visa. “Así que si quieren hacernos saber que son trabajadores sexuales, y esto es lo que ganan al mes, sólo tienen que escribir un correo electrónico y llenar esa sección de esa manera”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11934956\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11934956\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">En el sitio web de GIFT, puede subir una serie de documentos para acompañar su solicitud y comprobar cuánto gana. \u003ccite>(Cottonbro/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"vivienda\">\u003c/a>Mi situación de vivienda es complicada, o estoy entre dos alojamientos en este momento. ¿Cómo puedo demostrar que vivo en San Francisco?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Al igual que para verificar sus ingresos, hay muchas formas de confirmar que vive actualmente en San Francisco. Si no tiene ningún recibo de PG&E o de una compañía telefónica que incluya su nombre y dirección actual, puede pedir a un trabajador social o proveedor de atención sanitaria o agencia con la que esté trabajando, que escriba una carta que confirme que vive en la ciudad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si se aloja en un albergue, puede solicitar una carta de verificación a la gerencia del albergue. Pero si eso tampoco es una opción, puede llenar otro \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_e495477cb1df47319fab57e3b20f314e.pdf\">formulario de autocertificación de residencia (PDF) disponible en el sitio web de GIFT\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En el formulario de declaración de residencia, tendrá que confirmar que actualmente no tiene vivienda y que no hay ningún organismo u organización que pueda facilitarle una carta que confirme su situación de alojamiento. Una vez completado, \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">puede subirlo al portal en línea con el resto de sus documentos\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"encuestas\">\u003c/a>¿Qué hay de esas encuestas de seguimiento que los participantes en GIFT tienen que hacer cada tres meses?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, asociada ejecutiva del Distrito Transgénero, confirma que el objetivo de estos controles es saber cómo les va a la gente desde que inició el programa. “No estamos vigilando cómo gastan el dinero”, afirma Davis. “Pero nos gustaría saber cómo está mejorando su vida”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La clínica Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero participarán en estos seguimientos, los cuales también verán si han cambiado las rutinas diarias y las responsabilidades de los participantes. Por ejemplo, explica Davis, “¿Están recibiendo la atención de salud mental que necesitan? ¿Pueden pagar la comida? ¿Pueden pagar el seguro? ¿Pueden acudir a las citas con el médico o conseguir recetas médicas?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En estas conversaciones, si un participante dice que necesita servicios de atención de salud, se le puede poner en contacto con los Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin para que reciba tratamiento. Algunos de estos datos también se compartirán con la Oficina de Iniciativas Transgénero del Ayuntamiento. Sin embargo, el equipo del Distrito Transgénero aclaró que estos datos se utilizarán para comprender mejor el impacto del programa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>También es importante mencionar que las agencias de la ciudad no comparten información sobre el estatus migratorio de nadie con las agencias federales.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Puedo participar en este programa si estoy indocumentado?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sí, y no necesita un número del Seguro Social para recibir los ingresos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Los organizadores dicen que las personas hispanohablantes monolingües, y los inmigrantes indocumentados tienen prioridad de inscripción.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Cómo se elegirá exactamente a los participantes?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>El centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero seleccionarán a los participantes al azar. Y en cuanto al público trans de San Francisco al que se quiere llegar, el programa todavía tiene “datos demográficos que estamos tratando de concretar”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“El 60% de las personas que vamos a intentar que participen en el programa son personas trans negras”, explicaron.\u003c/strong> “Así que en esa selección al azar, al menos el 60% van a ser [personas trans negras]”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Los clasificaremos según la categoría en la que se encuentren y luego simplemente haremos una selección al azar dentro de cada categoría”, añadió Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"puedo\">\u003c/a>¿Dónde puedo dirigirme?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">Dado que la solicitud GIFT sólo está disponible en línea\u003c/a>, puede resultar difícil presentarla para las personas que no tienen acceso regular a una computadora o una conexión estable a Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para ofrecer un asesoramiento más personalizado, el equipo del centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin está aceptando ayudar a personas interesadas sin cita previa a presentar su solicitud, o que tengan preguntas al respecto. Puede hablar en persona con el equipo en la clínica ubicada en el 1735 de la calle Mission, cerca de las líneas 14 y 49 de Muni. También puede llamarles al (415) 565-7667.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis, del Distrito Transgénero, también recomienda que acuda a su trabajador social si lo tiene. Si usted o alguien que usted conoce necesita más ayuda en español, Davis recomienda contactar a \u003ca href=\"https://ellaparatranslatinas.org/es/home\">El/La Para TransLatinas\u003c/a>, una organización que se centra en servir y abogar por las personas trans Latinx en el Área de la Bahía. Puede ponerse en contacto llamando al (415) 864-7278.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>¿Quiere solicitar GIFT pero se siente inseguro o incluso nervioso por hacerlo?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No tenga dudas”, exhorta Davis, añadiendo que, al tratarse de un programa piloto, este puede influir en lo que se pueda hacer en San Francisco, y potencialmente otras ciudades más.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Por el momento, es una oportunidad única en la vida, y esto ayudará a muchas más personas trans, jóvenes trans y personas mayores trans en el futuro”, dijo.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Este artículo fue traducido por la periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/mpena/\">María Peña\u003c/a> y editado por el periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/ccabreralomeli\">Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Be as transparent as possible with both GIFT organizers \u003cem>and\u003c/em> government agencies. “Their case manager is probably the best person [to contact], and their case manager can then reach out to us, too,” Favela added.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>I work informally. What can I do to prove my income?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On the GIFT website, \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/apply\">you can upload a variety of documents\u003c/a> to go with your application that verify how much you earn. That can include W-2 forms, pay stubs or even bank statements. People who only receive SSI or SSDI income can share the letters they receive from the Social Security Administration confirming they receive these benefits. Even financial aid letters from schools are accepted as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if you work informally and do not have documentation to go along with your earnings, you can instead provide a self-attestation letter. This \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_1b957f500e164f44b6427e13fafebe91.pdf\">income attestation form is available as a PDF\u003c/a> on the GIFT website along with \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/apply\">other documents to download\u003c/a> and use, and lets you share how much income you are making a month, how many people live with you and why you cannot provide proof of income.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re trusting people to make sure that they come in with correct information and have good intentions,” said Favela, who added that they are very understanding that folks have many different ways to pay the bills. “So if they want to let us know that they’re doing sex work and this is how much they make that month, they could just write an email and fill out that section that way,” Favela said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11867225\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11867225 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/pexels-cottonbro-5054213-scaled-e1617913983516.jpg\" alt=\"Two hands with dark brown skin type on a laptop in front of a window.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">On the GIFT website, you can upload a variety of documents to go with your application that verify how much you earn. \u003ccite>(Cottonbro/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"live\">\u003c/a>My living situation is complicated, or I’m between housing at the moment. How can I prove I live in San Francisco?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Just like verifying your income, there are many ways you can confirm you currently live in San Francisco. If you don’t have any mail from PG&E or a phone company that includes your name and current address, you can ask a social worker or health care provider or agency you are working with to write a letter that confirms you are living in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you are staying at a shelter, you can request a homeless verification letter from shelter management. But if that’s not an option, either, you can fill out \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_1505cef25be14f31b42fe69aaf7b011d.pdf\">a different proof-of-residency self-attestation form available on the GIFT website (PDF)\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the residency attestation form, you will have to confirm that you are currently unhoused and that there is not an agency or organization able to provide a letter confirming your housing status. Once completed, you can then \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/apply\">upload it to the website with the rest of your documents\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"survey\">\u003c/a>What about those follow-up surveys GIFT participants have to complete every three months?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, executive associate with the Transgender District, confirms that the goal of these check-ins is to understand how folks are doing since the program started. “We are not policing them on how to spend the money,” Davis said. “But we would like to know how it’s improving their life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Lyon-Martin Community Health Services and the Transgender District will take part in these follow-ups, which would also touch on how a participant’s daily routine and responsibilities are changing. For example, Davis explained, “Are they receiving the mental health that they need? Are they able to pay for food? Are they able to pay for insurance? Are they able to go to those doctor’s appointments or get prescriptions?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In these conversations, if a participant shares that they need health care services, they can be connected to treatment at Lyon-Martin Community Health Services. Some of this data will also be shared with the Office of Transgender Initiatives at City Hall. However, the team at the Transgender District clarified that this data will be used to better understand the impact of the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also important to mention that city agencies do not share information on someone’s immigration status with federal agencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Can I apply to this program if I’m undocumented?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Yes, and you do not need a Social Security number to receive GIFT income.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>People who are monolingual Spanish-speakers and undocumented immigrants have priority enrollment, say the organizers.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How exactly will participants be chosen?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Lyon-Martin Community Health Services and the Transgender District will select participants randomly. But among the target audience of trans San Franciscans, the program still has “demographics that we’re trying to hit,” said Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“Sixty percent of people that we’re going [to] try to have in the program are Black trans folks,” they said.\u003c/strong> “So in that randomized selection, at least 60% are going to be [Black trans folks].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will sort them out to each category that they fall in and then just randomize within each category,” added Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"help\">\u003c/a>I need help completing my application. Where can I go?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Because \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/apply\">the GIFT application is only available online\u003c/a>, it can be harder for people without regular access to a computer, or a stable internet connection, to apply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To offer more personalized advice, the team at Lyon-Martin Community Health Services is taking walk-ins from folks who are interested in applying or have questions about their applications. You can talk to the team in person at the Lyon-Martin Community Health Services clinic located at 1735 Mission St., close to the 14 and 49 Muni lines. You can also call the front desk at (415) 565-7667.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis, with the Transgender District, also recommends reaching out to your social worker if you have one. If you or someone you know needs more help in Spanish, Davis recommends reaching out to \u003ca href=\"https://ellaparatranslatinas.org/\">El/La Para TransLatinas\u003c/a>, an organization that focuses on serving and advocating for trans Latinx people in the Bay Area. You can contact them by phone at (415) 864-7278.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What if you really want to apply for GIFT before the Dec. 15 deadline, but feel unsure or even nervous about doing so? You should still go for it, says Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Don’t feel hesitant,” Davis urged, adding that because this is a pilot program, it can influence what San Francisco — and potentially many other cities — does.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At the moment, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and this will help so many more trans people, trans kids and trans elderly in the future,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

How can I prove I live in San Francisco?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Just like verifying your income, there are many ways you can confirm you currently live in San Francisco. If you don’t have any mail from PG&E or a phone company that includes your name and current address, you can ask a social worker or health care provider or agency you are working with to write a letter that confirms you are living in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you are staying at a shelter, you can request a homeless verification letter from shelter management. But if that’s not an option, either, you can fill out \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_1505cef25be14f31b42fe69aaf7b011d.pdf\">a different proof-of-residency self-attestation form available on the GIFT website (PDF)\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the residency attestation form, you will have to confirm that you are currently unhoused and that there is not an agency or organization able to provide a letter confirming your housing status. Once completed, you can then \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/apply\">upload it to the website with the rest of your documents\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"survey\">\u003c/a>What about those follow-up surveys GIFT participants have to complete every three months?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, executive associate with the Transgender District, confirms that the goal of these check-ins is to understand how folks are doing since the program started. “We are not policing them on how to spend the money,” Davis said. “But we would like to know how it’s improving their life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Lyon-Martin Community Health Services and the Transgender District will take part in these follow-ups, which would also touch on how a participant’s daily routine and responsibilities are changing. For example, Davis explained, “Are they receiving the mental health that they need? Are they able to pay for food? Are they able to pay for insurance? Are they able to go to those doctor’s appointments or get prescriptions?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In these conversations, if a participant shares that they need health care services, they can be connected to treatment at Lyon-Martin Community Health Services. Some of this data will also be shared with the Office of Transgender Initiatives at City Hall. However, the team at the Transgender District clarified that this data will be used to better understand the impact of the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also important to mention that city agencies do not share information on someone’s immigration status with federal agencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Can I apply to this program if I’m undocumented?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Yes, and you do not need a Social Security number to receive GIFT income.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>People who are monolingual Spanish-speakers and undocumented immigrants have priority enrollment, say the organizers.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How exactly will participants be chosen?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Lyon-Martin Community Health Services and the Transgender District will select participants randomly. But among the target audience of trans San Franciscans, the program still has “demographics that we’re trying to hit,” said Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“Sixty percent of people that we’re going [to] try to have in the program are Black trans folks,” they said.\u003c/strong> “So in that randomized selection, at least 60% are going to be [Black trans folks].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will sort them out to each category that they fall in and then just randomize within each category,” added Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"help\">\u003c/a>I need help completing my application. Where can I go?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Because \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/apply\">the GIFT application is only available online\u003c/a>, it can be harder for people without regular access to a computer, or a stable internet connection, to apply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To offer more personalized advice, the team at Lyon-Martin Community Health Services is taking walk-ins from folks who are interested in applying or have questions about their applications. You can talk to the team in person at the Lyon-Martin Community Health Services clinic located at 1735 Mission St., close to the 14 and 49 Muni lines. You can also call the front desk at (415) 565-7667.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis, with the Transgender District, also recommends reaching out to your social worker if you have one. If you or someone you know needs more help in Spanish, Davis recommends reaching out to \u003ca href=\"https://ellaparatranslatinas.org/\">El/La Para TransLatinas\u003c/a>, an organization that focuses on serving and advocating for trans Latinx people in the Bay Area. You can contact them by phone at (415) 864-7278.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What if you really want to apply for GIFT before the Dec. 15 deadline, but feel unsure or even nervous about doing so? You should still go for it, says Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Don’t feel hesitant,” Davis urged, adding that because this is a pilot program, it can influence what San Francisco — and potentially many other cities — does.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At the moment, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and this will help so many more trans people, trans kids and trans elderly in the future,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For the most part, unfortunately, a 1500-or 2000-seat theater showing films, that’s just not viable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those who want the theater’s seating plan to remain intact point out that the Castro has hosted all kinds of non-movie events over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is possible to have the theater be conducive to movie-going and concert-going and comedy and spoken word presentations and community meetings,” said \u003ca href=\"https://silentfilm.org/\">San Francisco Silent Film Festival\u003c/a> director Anita Monga. “All of that is possible with the existing seats and same configuration.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Another Planet pushes ahead\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Another Planet spokesman Alex Tourk said that despite its plan to remove the movie-style seating, the company is committed to honoring the theater’s legacy. “They absolutely want to continue to show film,” Tourk said. “They committed to making sure that 25% of programming would be dedicated to the LGBTQ community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the company has been shocked by all the pushback, given its solid reputation as a concert and festival producer, and its plan to put $15 million towards renovating the theater. “Another Planet did expect some opposition,” he said. “But the level of vitriol has been beyond the pale.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tourk said even if the landmark designation for the theater’s interior goes ahead next year, Another Planet will not, at least for now, be deterred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Another Planet will continue to work with the city to find consensus and move the vision forward.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2022 NPR.

They added that, in this early stage, investigating agencies are working to determine the facts of what happened, including the motive behind the attack. The FBI is providing resources such as investigators and forensic analysis from their Evidence Response Team and will update the public via Twitter @FBISanFrancisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original post, 7 a.m. Friday:\u003c/strong> Paul Pelosi, husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was attacked and severely beaten with a hammer by an assailant who broke into the couple's San Francisco home early Friday, according to people familiar with the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi, 82, suffered blunt force injuries to his head and body, according to two people who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing probe. The attack was not random; the assailant specifically targeted the Pelosi home, the AP's sources said. Pelosi was being treated by doctors for bruising, severe swelling and other injuries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drew Hammill, a spokesperson for Speaker Pelosi, said her husband is expected to make a full recovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Speaker and her family are grateful to the first responders and medical professionals involved, and request privacy at this time,\" Hammill \u003ca href=\"https://www.speaker.gov/newsroom/102822\">said in a statement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaker Pelosi was not in the Pacific Heights residence at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When officers arrived just before 2:30 a.m. Friday, they found the suspect and Pelosi both holding a single hammer, San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott said during a brief press conference late Friday morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The suspect pulled the hammer away from Mr. Pelosi and violently assaulted him with it,\" Scott said. \"Our officers immediately tackled the suspect, disarmed him, took him into custody, requested emergency backup and rendered medical aid.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A source briefed on the attack told NPR \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2022/10/28/1132191901/nancy-pelosi-husband-paul-attack?utm_term=nprnews&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=npr\">the assailant was searching for Speaker Pelosi\u003c/a>, and confronted her husband, shouting, \"Where is Nancy, where is Nancy?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SgtLobsinger/status/1585990915595771905?s=20&t=ALgQK_QbQy80AVsVrC38SQ\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police identified the suspect as David DePape, 42, who is believed to be a Berkeley resident. Pelosi and DePape were both transported to a local hospital for treatment, Scott said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DePape will be booked at San Francisco County Jail on charges of attempted homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse and \"several other additional felonies,\" Scott added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The motive for this attack is still being determined,\" he said, noting it is an active investigation being led by SFPD's Special Investigations Division, in collaboration with the FBI, U.S. Capitol Police and several other federal agencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott did not take any questions during the briefing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Capitol Police, tasked with protecting congressional leaders, said Nancy Pelosi was with her protective detail in Washington, D.C., when her husband was attacked. She had just returned this week from a security conference in Europe and is due to keynote an advocacy event Saturday evening with Vice President Kamala Harris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the circumstances of the attack are unclear, the attack raises questions about the safety of members of Congress and their families as threats to lawmakers are at an all-time high almost two years after the deadly Capitol insurrection. The attack also comes just 11 days ahead of midterm elections in which crime and public safety have emerged as top concerns among Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2021, Capitol Police investigated around 9,600 threats made against members of Congress, and members have been violently attacked in recent years. Former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., was shot in the head at an event outside a Tucson grocery store in 2011, and Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., was severely injured when a gunman opened fire on a Republican congressional baseball team practice in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This heinous assault is yet another example of the dangerous consequences of the divisive and hateful rhetoric that is putting lives at risk and undermining our very democracy and Democratic institutions,\" Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a statement. \"Our leaders should never fear for their safety and the safety of their families in serving the people they were elected to represent – not in their homes, not at the U.S. Capitol, not anywhere.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Members of Congress have received additional dollars for security at their homes, but some have pushed for more protection as people have showed up at their homes and as members have received an increasing number of threatening communications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve experienced firsthand how right wing political violence is on the rise in our country,” said state Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), who \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Officers-search-Wiener-s-home-for-bombs-after-17237197.php\">in June received a bomb threat that led SFPD to search his home\u003c/a>. “The violence and threats that we as elected officials – and our families – face every single day badly damage democracy and must end. Words have consequences, and without question, the GOP’s hate and extremism has bred political violence. We must hold accountable leaders and public figures who incite this violence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11930398\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11930398\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/10/GettyImages-1393470435-scaled-e1666965000494.jpg\" alt=\"Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband Paul.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1209\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/10/GettyImages-1393470435-scaled-e1666965000494.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/10/GettyImages-1393470435-scaled-e1666965000494-800x504.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/10/GettyImages-1393470435-scaled-e1666965000494-1020x642.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/10/GettyImages-1393470435-scaled-e1666965000494-160x101.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/10/GettyImages-1393470435-scaled-e1666965000494-1536x967.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nancy Pelosi and Paul Pelosi attend the 23rd Annual Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at The Kennedy Center on April 24, 2022, in Washington, DC.

"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco needs the ability to more easily place residents with mental illness in restrictive conservatorships, with less red tape, to ease its homelessness crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s according to San Francisco Mayor London Breed, who joined KQED Political Breakdown hosts Scott Shafer and Marisa Lagos at a KQED Live event Wednesday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout the night, Breed answered wide-ranging questions covering new policies against drug dealers announced by her district attorney appointee, her own accomplishments on tackling city homelessness, and her much-maligned use of prewritten resignation letters for her city commission appointees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Summing up her time as mayor, Breed said, “This bureaucracy has really tested my patience for getting results.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed also dismissed the critiques that requiring her commission appointees to write undated letters of resignation allowed her undue influence over them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>‘“This is a real insider political thing,” she said. “The people who care about this are the people who, in most cases, just want to mess with me over something.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Board of Supervisors are planning \u003ca href=\"https://sfbos.org/sites/default/files/gao101122_agenda.pdf\">a hearing on those letters next Tuesday\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while Breed isn’t on this year’s ballot in San Francisco, her appointees certainly are up for election: District Attorney Brooke Jenkins, for instance, and District 6 Supervisor Matt Dorsey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So while San Francisco voters won’t weigh in on Breed directly, they’ll certainly vote on her policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>On Gov. Gavin Newsom’s CARE Court\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On stage at KQED’s venue, The Commons, Lagos and Shafer pressed Breed on her view of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s new CARE Court program. The governor signed the Community Assistance, Recovery and Empowerment (CARE) Act into law last month, creating a program of court-ordered treatment plans for people deemed to be suffering from severe mental illness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People with mental disorders who decline those plans could be placed under a conservatorship and ordered to comply. But Breed said that doesn’t go far enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that the challenge is, we need more and I think we need to be bold,” Breed said. “And we need to have an honest conversation about people, some people who can get help and maybe be stabilized and be better and get OK. And there are others who need to be in a locked mental health facility who sometimes are violent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said that the complaints about old-style mental health facilities miss that modern society now has more evidence-based treatment of mental illnesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_yS_grDCMc\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch the full interview with Mayor London Breed and KQED Political Breakdown hosts Scott Shafer and Marisa Lagos on YouTube. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also bemoaned \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11742865/should-s-f-be-able-to-compel-mentally-ill-homeless-people-into-treatment\">a conservatorship law authored by state Sen. Scott Wiener\u003c/a>, which was approved in 2018, as being too onerous. It requires eight psychiatric holds before a person can be conserved by the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That threshold needs to be lowered,” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Changing the city’s approach may even be more useful than the $1 billion annually the city now spends on homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not about the money,” Breed said (though she did defend the city’s record on homelessness, saying San Francisco saw a 15% reduction in unsheltered homelessness in the past year, and a reduction in homelessness by 3.5%, even as other Bay Area cities saw no reduction).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She framed her view in personal terms: A man she knew who was kind to his community, who gave flowers to women he knew and lived in a senior home, began to develop dementia and “get violent,” Breed said. She tried to get him stabilized, to take his medication but, ultimately, could not legally force him to. He’s now homeless on the streets of San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So why is that OK to say that he has rights to say ‘I don’t want help’?” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know he has dementia. We know he’s never been this kind of person before. So he needs to be cared for, differently.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Breed on prewritten resignation letters for her appointees\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Breed has come under fire recently \u003ca href=\"https://sfstandard.com/politics/mayor-breed-to-end-practice-of-making-appointees-sign-undated-resignation-letters-in-face-of-legislative-action/\">after the San Francisco Standard revealed she required prewritten resignation letters\u003c/a> from many of her appointees to city commissions, like the police commission or San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since those commissioners are supposed to exercise their independent judgment and expertise, the City Attorney’s Office advised Breed to end the practice, saying the prewritten resignation letters could threaten appointees’ independence and show “undue influence.” The appointees often vote on controversial issues, like the election of a police commission president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Onstage at KQED, Shafer began to introduce the letters situation, when Breed interrupted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You gonna talk about my letters?” Breed asked Shafer playfully. “Why are we focused on that when there are so many important things to be focused on?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said the practice of having prewritten resignation letters was inspired by a port commissioner, Mel Murphy, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/matier-ross/article/S-F-Port-Commissioner-Mel-Murphy-pressured-to-6180332.php\">who would not resign when Mayor Ed Lee asked him to\u003c/a>, which affected port commission business. That’s happened to her, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s “part of why we did what we did, and I take full responsibility for it, because it was my decision. It was not an illegal thing to do. But it was necessary if I ever needed to use it,” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed then turned things around on Shafer and asked him, “Why do you think it’s so important?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shafer, reflecting the advice from the City Attorney’s Office, said, “Because it implies that you want to have a level of control, when their job is to oversee these departments and be independent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said, “I do want to have a level of control. That’s not even a question, because I’m held accountable for it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She later added, “Commissioners aren’t even elected. The buck stops with me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Breed on fentanyl dealers\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Former DA Chesa Boudin was recalled, in part, for his more progressive approach to prosecutions, sometimes sending those arrested for drug dealing to diversion courts. Still, critics have taken Breed, and new DA Jenkins, to task for \u003ca href=\"https://48hills.org/2022/08/sf-da-seeks-return-to-the-failed-approach-of-the-war-on-drugs/\">their more hard-line approach to drug dealers and drug users\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking to that, Breed told Shafer and Lagos that her lived experience lets her easily shake off critics. She grew up in housing projects in the Fillmore neighborhood, where drug addiction and death touched her family. Other would-be “saviors,” she said, don’t know that life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of my experiences of who I am shaped my policy. But also how unapologetic I am,” she said. “It’s why I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in even if it’s controversial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December last year, Breed notoriously complained about the “bullshit that has destroyed our city,” when announcing \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/A-month-after-S-F-Mayor-Breed-s-tough-talk-on-16771411.php\">a police crackdown in the Tenderloin, which, debatably, may never have materialized\u003c/a>. Shafer asked Breed about the motivation behind those comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that came about because I was angry. I was frustrated,” Breed said. She said she made the comments after speaking with immigrant families in the Tenderloin, who told her about violent encounters in the neighborhood through tears.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Why do people who deal drugs have more rights than people who try to get up and go to work every day and take their children to school?” Breed asked. The crowd at KQED applauded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shafer pushed back and asked, “Do they, though? Have more rights?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said she wanted to talk about “the reality of the situation,” and that there are many people who come from Honduras dealing drugs. The San Francisco Public Defender’s Office, in turn, has argued \u003ca href=\"https://sfstandard.com/criminal-justice/sf-police-chief-defends-officer-accused-of-targeting-latinos-in-tenderloin-drug-busts/\">police are racially profiling by arresting mostly Latino drug dealers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/FitzTheReporter/status/1577843894443642880\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s nothing racial profile about this, we all know it, it’s the reality, it’s what you see, it’s what’s out there,” she said. “So we have people advocating for folks who are selling fentanyl that’s killing people. But what about the kid that got ahold of some fentanyl by accident and died? What about the families?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So for me, we can’t just, you know, throw our hands up and say, ‘People have rights,’” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Breed on SFPD arrest rates\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Stories abound in local media about San Francisco Police Department officers \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/S-F-supervisor-questions-police-chief-about-16921936.php\">failing to make arrests\u003c/a>. That phenomenon has been blamed on dwindling police staff (which led to \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/S-F-Mayor-Breed-s-14-billion-budget-would-17212579.php\">raises for police in San Francisco’s recent budget\u003c/a>), and low morale under former DA Chesa Boudin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some critics of the SFPD \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/heatherknight/article/SF-police-crime-16931399.php\">alleged officers were on an unofficial work stoppage\u003c/a> to undermine Boudin and his progressive policies, which police often criticized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Onstage at KQED, Lagos asked Breed, “Do you think the police purposefully undermined the former DA?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, I’m not going to guess what someone did or didn’t do,” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though Boudin sometimes disagreed with the mayor and the police department on prosecution policy, she said, it shouldn’t stop officers from fulfilling their oath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You swear to serve and protect,” she said, “and if you do that, you can’t deliberately try to undermine someone because you don’t like who that person is. You have to do your responsibility based on the oath that you take. And I think, if that were the case, it’s really unfortunate. And in some cases, some of those people should not be wearing the uniform.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, she said, the police department needs support as it’s short more than 500 officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Building up this department is going to take some time,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gavin Newsom’s CARE Court\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On stage at KQED’s venue, The Commons, Lagos and Shafer pressed Breed on her view of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s new CARE Court program. The governor signed the Community Assistance, Recovery and Empowerment (CARE) Act into law last month, creating a program of court-ordered treatment plans for people deemed to be suffering from severe mental illness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People with mental disorders who decline those plans could be placed under a conservatorship and ordered to comply. But Breed said that doesn’t go far enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that the challenge is, we need more and I think we need to be bold,” Breed said. “And we need to have an honest conversation about people, some people who can get help and maybe be stabilized and be better and get OK. And there are others who need to be in a locked mental health facility who sometimes are violent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said that the complaints about old-style mental health facilities miss that modern society now has more evidence-based treatment of mental illnesses.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/j_yS_grDCMc'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/j_yS_grDCMc'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch the full interview with Mayor London Breed and KQED Political Breakdown hosts Scott Shafer and Marisa Lagos on YouTube. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also bemoaned \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11742865/should-s-f-be-able-to-compel-mentally-ill-homeless-people-into-treatment\">a conservatorship law authored by state Sen. Scott Wiener\u003c/a>, which was approved in 2018, as being too onerous. It requires eight psychiatric holds before a person can be conserved by the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That threshold needs to be lowered,” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Changing the city’s approach may even be more useful than the $1 billion annually the city now spends on homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not about the money,” Breed said (though she did defend the city’s record on homelessness, saying San Francisco saw a 15% reduction in unsheltered homelessness in the past year, and a reduction in homelessness by 3.5%, even as other Bay Area cities saw no reduction).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She framed her view in personal terms: A man she knew who was kind to his community, who gave flowers to women he knew and lived in a senior home, began to develop dementia and “get violent,” Breed said. She tried to get him stabilized, to take his medication but, ultimately, could not legally force him to. He’s now homeless on the streets of San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So why is that OK to say that he has rights to say ‘I don’t want help’?” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know he has dementia. We know he’s never been this kind of person before. So he needs to be cared for, differently.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Breed on prewritten resignation letters for her appointees\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Breed has come under fire recently \u003ca href=\"https://sfstandard.com/politics/mayor-breed-to-end-practice-of-making-appointees-sign-undated-resignation-letters-in-face-of-legislative-action/\">after the San Francisco Standard revealed she required prewritten resignation letters\u003c/a> from many of her appointees to city commissions, like the police commission or San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since those commissioners are supposed to exercise their independent judgment and expertise, the City Attorney’s Office advised Breed to end the practice, saying the prewritten resignation letters could threaten appointees’ independence and show “undue influence.” The appointees often vote on controversial issues, like the election of a police commission president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Onstage at KQED, Shafer began to introduce the letters situation, when Breed interrupted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You gonna talk about my letters?” Breed asked Shafer playfully. “Why are we focused on that when there are so many important things to be focused on?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said the practice of having prewritten resignation letters was inspired by a port commissioner, Mel Murphy, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/matier-ross/article/S-F-Port-Commissioner-Mel-Murphy-pressured-to-6180332.php\">who would not resign when Mayor Ed Lee asked him to\u003c/a>, which affected port commission business. That’s happened to her, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s “part of why we did what we did, and I take full responsibility for it, because it was my decision. It was not an illegal thing to do. But it was necessary if I ever needed to use it,” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed then turned things around on Shafer and asked him, “Why do you think it’s so important?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shafer, reflecting the advice from the City Attorney’s Office, said, “Because it implies that you want to have a level of control, when their job is to oversee these departments and be independent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said, “I do want to have a level of control. That’s not even a question, because I’m held accountable for it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She later added, “Commissioners aren’t even elected. The buck stops with me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Breed on fentanyl dealers\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Former DA Chesa Boudin was recalled, in part, for his more progressive approach to prosecutions, sometimes sending those arrested for drug dealing to diversion courts. Still, critics have taken Breed, and new DA Jenkins, to task for \u003ca href=\"https://48hills.org/2022/08/sf-da-seeks-return-to-the-failed-approach-of-the-war-on-drugs/\">their more hard-line approach to drug dealers and drug users\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking to that, Breed told Shafer and Lagos that her lived experience lets her easily shake off critics. She grew up in housing projects in the Fillmore neighborhood, where drug addiction and death touched her family. Other would-be “saviors,” she said, don’t know that life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of my experiences of who I am shaped my policy. But also how unapologetic I am,” she said. “It’s why I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in even if it’s controversial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December last year, Breed notoriously complained about the “bullshit that has destroyed our city,” when announcing \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/A-month-after-S-F-Mayor-Breed-s-tough-talk-on-16771411.php\">a police crackdown in the Tenderloin, which, debatably, may never have materialized\u003c/a>. Shafer asked Breed about the motivation behind those comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that came about because I was angry. I was frustrated,” Breed said. She said she made the comments after speaking with immigrant families in the Tenderloin, who told her about violent encounters in the neighborhood through tears.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Why do people who deal drugs have more rights than people who try to get up and go to work every day and take their children to school?” Breed asked. The crowd at KQED applauded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shafer pushed back and asked, “Do they, though? Have more rights?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed said she wanted to talk about “the reality of the situation,” and that there are many people who come from Honduras dealing drugs. The San Francisco Public Defender’s Office, in turn, has argued \u003ca href=\"https://sfstandard.com/criminal-justice/sf-police-chief-defends-officer-accused-of-targeting-latinos-in-tenderloin-drug-busts/\">police are racially profiling by arresting mostly Latino drug dealers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But what about the kid that got ahold of some fentanyl by accident and died? What about the families?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So for me, we can’t just, you know, throw our hands up and say, ‘People have rights,’” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Breed on SFPD arrest rates\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Stories abound in local media about San Francisco Police Department officers \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/S-F-supervisor-questions-police-chief-about-16921936.php\">failing to make arrests\u003c/a>. That phenomenon has been blamed on dwindling police staff (which led to \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/S-F-Mayor-Breed-s-14-billion-budget-would-17212579.php\">raises for police in San Francisco’s recent budget\u003c/a>), and low morale under former DA Chesa Boudin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some critics of the SFPD \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/heatherknight/article/SF-police-crime-16931399.php\">alleged officers were on an unofficial work stoppage\u003c/a> to undermine Boudin and his progressive policies, which police often criticized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Onstage at KQED, Lagos asked Breed, “Do you think the police purposefully undermined the former DA?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, I’m not going to guess what someone did or didn’t do,” Breed said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though Boudin sometimes disagreed with the mayor and the police department on prosecution policy, she said, it shouldn’t stop officers from fulfilling their oath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You swear to serve and protect,” she said, “and if you do that, you can’t deliberately try to undermine someone because you don’t like who that person is. You have to do your responsibility based on the oath that you take. And I think, if that were the case, it’s really unfortunate. And in some cases, some of those people should not be wearing the uniform.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, she said, the police department needs support as it’s short more than 500 officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
